During Colonial times, families were bigger by necessity, with plenty of kids who all had work-it-off-in-the-field appetites. Today's American households are different, with fewer people and smaller appetites. That's why Edward's of Surry, Virginia came up with this little gem of a boneless Virginia Country Ham (average weight 2-3 lbs.). It may be a small country ham in size, but it's all meat and big on hickory-smoked, country ham flavor -- a convenient variation on their larger, cooked Virginia Country Hams.

This compact smoked country ham has the same bold flavor and rich mahogany Virginia ham color that have made Edwards hams legendary. And take it from the pro's at Edward's of Surry, the size of this easy-to-store country ham is a bit misleading. When you slice it paper-thin, you do more than enhance it's unique Virginia ham flavor. You also end up with a feast-size quantity of delicious country cured ham slices!

This ham was so delicious and perfect for just the 2 of us for Easter. Easy to prepare and just the right amount for a couple leftover ham sandwiches.

Thrilled with the gift.

My son-in-law was thrilled with the ham, something special he remembered from his past. Delivery was right on time, in perfect condition. Thank you.

Reminds me of 30 years ago

I'm a transplated Southerner after my Navy stint, I just stayed in Washington State. Since leaving Missouri I don't think I've had "real" ham in about 3 decades, since going to my paps for Easter and Christmas every year as a boy. Tasting this brought back a lot of memories, including nana's sharp advice to paps - "Slice it thinner, Henry! But nana was always right - thin slices are the only way to go!
